I'll give you guys an extension of another week on this one, since it's apparent no one has participated thus far.

I'm going to have a go at this.
I've had articles about animal rights published in my regional paper before so I think I should be OK!
Although how American is Mibba.com? I know a lot of what I could include will be general, but generally I write from an English point of view, using UK / British statistics, facts and references.
I've had a quick browse of Mibba.com but do you know what person I should write in? I'm thinking of combining first and second so I'm writing from a personal point of view whilst directly addressing the reader.
What's the general word count?
Are we allowed to post links?
Can we mention products / brands? Would it be alright for me to say "boycott Procter and Gamble!", "buy Co-op BUAV approved toiletries" or not?
And (yes another question!) how long does it take for an article to appear on the site? How many that are sent in actually get published?

Some article possibilities I've thought of:

The vegan stereotype: basically what people think of vegans and why it's not true. Not so sure what I could write for this though!

What it means to be an animal rights activist: quite a personal piece about my involvement with activism, what other people are doing, all the different things people can do etc.

Why vegan? - why veganism is the best choice for animals and the environment

Vegan for the planet - why veganism is best for the environment. I've had a piece in the paper about this and I take A level Environmental Studies so I feel I could write a fairly good piece about this.

Living without cruelty - steps people can take to help eliminate cruelty in their lives. Would probably have to be written from a UK point of view for me to know what to write! Had a piece a bit like this in the paper recently.

Animal gift aid schemes - why you shouldn't support "send a cow" schemes where animals are sent to LEDCs. Had a piece in the paper about this last Christmas. I might do this as it's relevant with it being near Christmas.

Although how American is Mibba.com? I know a lot of what I could include will be general, but generally I write from an English point of view, using UK / British statistics, facts and references.

I know there are many members from both the United States and the UK.

That should work.

Are we allowed to post links?

I have used links in mine.

Can we mention products / brands? Would it be alright for me to say "boycott Procter and Gamble!", "buy Co-op BUAV approved toiletries" or not?

That should be alright.

And (yes another question!) how long does it take for an article to appear on the site? How many that are sent in actually get published?

It depends. They are usually put up a day or two. Most are put on the site.

What's the general word count?

I'm not sure about the general word count, but articles have to be at least two hundred words long.

I started to write one on pit bull bans / BSL but I got distracted with schoolwork. I never knew that I can't use my time that efficiently.
